praise

I don’t read a lot of press... I’m terrible with praise.
You are very good at it in the US and Canada :)

In Iceland, if you like someone, you sort of hint that they are okay
after you’ve known them for ten years. So I’m sorry to say I’m not
very recptive when it comes to praise.
Or criticism.
I guess it’s a weakness, because I think I have a fear that it will
put me off my path. To get lazy. Since I feel I have only started
and have so far to go, I shy away from distractions.
